Gevin Paul Grisbaum

Not professional, unprepared, rushed and not very good at what he was hired to do: which was prepare a simple document that then needed to be notarized for a private adoption. Initially in the document he had the adopting parents names wrong (names of grandparents in the case), then I asked for one a...dditional request to be added to the paperwork and so the only changes made were 1) adding one request 2) bringing attention to his errors about the names, and he then went and told the other adopting party’s attorney that I was “jerking him around.” Then we finally get the paperwork together and he asks that I bring someone for a witness as we needed two witnesses. I arrange this, I’m driving to the city from the northshore with my friend who arranged her day around this to witness for me and then he cancels an hour before hand. Finally, weeks later the stars align and we make it to the notary’s office with this document with Grisbauld. He doesn’t make eye contact or explain the document (literally his entire reason for being there, he was hired to put the document together and go over it with me piece by piece so I knew what I was signing and have it signed in front of a notary). I then ask for a copy on the spot as this guy is incredibly hard to get a hold of, I understand that but I’m not letting him walk out back to his busy life without giving me a hard copy. He acts like he didn’t hear me, I ask once more and he acts completely put out. THIS IS AN ADOPTION. A huge life altering event. Sorry, guy, that I want the paperwork in my hand??? Edited to add in response to the review above: apparently you can’t give an honest and truthful summary of Mr. Grisbauld as an attorney without him retorting in his own reviews… again, very professional. Nobody ever attempted to meet on Super Bowl Sunday..? The day that he cancelled our meeting 60min beforehand after I had arranged for another person to come with me to witness, was a Monday. And I never said I paid him but he was hired to represent me on my behalf, and he delivered poorly.
